Produced from a selection of the best grapes from Abadia Retuerta’s vineyards, this deep coloured, complex red combines the richness of Tempranillo, the elegance of Cabernet Sauvignon and the strength of Syrah. The nose is fresh and vibrant, full of ripe black and red fruits combined with lingering notes of balsamic, liquorice and sweet oak woodundefinedAbadia Retuerta is a small, very premium and artisanal winery comprised of individual vineyards in the historic area of Sardon de Duero in Ribera del Duero. 54 plots have been identified, each with very different characteristics and planted with a single variety. One of the specialities of the estate is their use of international grapes like Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Petit Verdot and Sauvignon Blanc; this approach sets the wines apart from the requirements of DO Ribera del Duero. Tasting Note: Produced from a selection of the best grapes from Abadia Retuerta’s vineyards, this deep coloured, complex red combines the richness of Tempranillo, the elegance of Cabernet Sauvignon and the strength of Syrah. The nose is fresh and vibrant, full of ripe black and red fruits combined with lingering notes of balsamic, liquorice and sweet oak wood. The full bodied, creamy palate is structured by smooth tannins, juicy ripe fruits and a hint of cedar. 2011 was one of Abadía Retuerta’s best ever vintages, delivering a style of wine that can be drunk with pleasure right now or leftto develop further complexities over the next few years.
